Alright, probably why

FFXIV the stack markers are close to orange... and long time ago it had Bard having a fire circle that damaged enemies but not allies, yet the tanks thought it was bad and would drag enemies out of it. Probably why they removed that one.

@futurebird Though I've had a burning fire to learn, I can't and won't claim to be self-taught in electronics and computers, as I had many good mentors. (I've also enjoyed teaching, especially those moments when a student pushes through and grasps something new!)@mina if you are interested, I wrote a page about PCB fabrication technologies; the cordwood method dates back to the early 1950s.

I love the magic system in Genesys, with just basic spells (attack, heal, augment, curse, etc), some varying effects with suggested flavor (e.g. "Ice" adds ensnare to an attack, but mechanically it doesn't matter if it is vines, goop, whatever), and how much that effect increases spell difficulty. It lets the players go into a brainstorming session trying to come up with a spell to get out of a very specific situation, and having the game support almost anything. E.g. this create water idea could be an attack spell with the poisonous quality (making it a hard check), which requires the target to make a hard resilience check or take a bunch of extra damage and strain, which for a skilled mage against a non-boss creature (e.g. an overly ambitious bandit) is well within one-shot range. If they pass the check, they would still take damage from the attack, but would be able to cough up most of the water before it got too serious. This system sounds very cool also, and I have recently heard of Mage in another thread. I would like to play a system that gives players the ability to come up with spells that the GM doesn't know ahead of time (I seriously dislike long lists of predefined spells), but also has a little more of that hard magic-science set of rules to satisfy my inner Sanderson fanboy. I have built in some external scaffolding around the magic in my Genesys setting that does this, and it has been a ton of fun so far. My main gripe is that I wish I had more time to play RPGs (more than a couple sessions a month) so I could try out more systems.

Jury-rigged?

Ultimately it's the sense that they think they can "triangulate" me (say one thing to me and another to less left leaning democrats) that has me very sour on most of the party moderates. It's just dishonest. And it's condescending. But I find that moderate Democrats who found success doing this kind of trick with Bubba and Obama still think it will work and it just doesn't.

Executives are just going to make more boringly weird games now in imitation of DS.

Yeah, but if you want a true PvE experience, look elsewhere. As it's impossible to reach end-game without risk of being killed by another player. As even on private servers, the later resources are only in pvp areas that are shared with other private servers.

@mattmcirvin @futurebird they overplayed their hand. They could have quietly sat on their mountain of gold, enjoying life, working subtle political machinations and gradually growing more wealthy. Getting a hospital, school, or stadium names after them after some lavish donation (builds goodwill). But no, that's not good enough. And now people are ready to tear up the system because it's obvious it only works for the incredibly wealthy

Or sucker punch. The cast of ghost of tsushima looks identical to their voice actors.

The thing with products like games, textbooks, movies etc is that a large part of the cost is the design. This means that while you can make the products cheap and still cover the cost of manufacturing, you won’t make back the money from the design if your margin is very low. This gives manufacturers the ability to sell the same product in differently wealthy markets while still making a profit. If you now take the product from a cheaper market and sell it to more wealthy consumers at lower price than they usually pay, you aren’t actually selling at a better price because you are providing a better service. You are selling at a better price because you’re breaking the manufacturer’s business model. This isn’t something that can permanently work because either A: the manufacturer doesn’t get enough money to cover the design, can lead to bankruptcy or change of business model (C), B: through regulations this is prohibited or The manufacturer raises the price in the regions your buying from, breaking your business model and screwing over the people who can no longer afford it there. Of course this depends on the scale you’re acting in, but in theory preventing you from doing so would bring more equality between richer and poorer nations

I respect that, but at the same time, if you don't make time for leisure, 30 years will disappear down the drain in a blink of an eye. Nobody is going to make that space for you; you have to advocate for yourself.

Oh yikes, that's stupid expensive. Definitely not worth the cost. I think it'll get harder for me to not buy if they release a new Animal Crossing or Zelda, but honestly even then it's not worth buying a whole console for 2 games. Probably just have to play them by *other means*

I actually googled it and found multiple tutorials on how to activate full nudity even if you're in the US. You literally do just change your console's region, for Xbox anyway.

Controller would make sense. I've also only tried it in first person games where input delay is probably more noticeable than other types of games

@astory @geckzilla Your translation makes sense.

*looks at username* Go touch yourself.

I've been following the NHL for forever and I've understood in some sense that the sabres are where dreams go to die, but I don't think that ever sunk in for me as much as it did last night watching how sad their first-rounder looked after being picked. Maybe I'm a dumbass and it's just how he normally looks but I can't ever remember getting that bad an impression from an NHL pick's facial expressions and body language after being drafted.   On the flip side imagine knowing you're going to be drafted in the NHL first round, the sabres are up and there's a decent chance they take you, and then you dodge that bullet and the very next pick has you getting on a helicopter to fly to disneyland.  

I started playing it about a month ago, and honestly I think it’s fantastic, granted I never played Vermintide, but I’ve had a great time with dark tide so far. I already got 4 characters to level 30 (the max) including the one that just released.
